On the eve of Wisconsin’s spring election day, I’m going to make a few picks. Wisconsin Supreme Court: This is a no brainer. Michael Gableman has run one of the most disgustingly vile and dishonest campaigns in as long as I can remember, and in doing so he’s exposed himself as supremely unqualified and [...] Posted by Zach on March 31, 2008, at 8:30 pm
Two weeks ago today, I spent some time blogging about the rather bleak state of the U.S. economy. Among the economic indicators I highlighted were the following: Price of crude oil over $100 a barrel. National industrial output falls instead of increasing. National mortgage crisis, forcing several large finance companies to the brink of [...] Posted by Zach on March 27, 2008, at 10:03 pm
If I remember correctly, Scott Walker was elected to serve as County Executive largely on the promise he’d rectify the scandal-ridden quagmire that had become the county’s pension system. And yet, all these years later, we’re still hearing tales about a stunning lack of oversight over the county’s pension system: Milwaukee County pension officials [...] Posted by Zach on March 26, 2008, at 7:52 pm

So says Walker campaign staffer Tim Russell, in talking about the following ad that’s been all over the airwaves in the past week or so: Now sure, it’s a pretty decent ad, but as Greg Borowski of the MJS reported, the ad’s not really that unique, borrowing heavily from a theme most recently [...] Posted by Zach on March 24, 2008, at 7:54 pm
Any time an election year rolls around, some folks on the conservative side of the Cheddarsphere inevitably start screaming about massive vote fraud perpetrated by the Democrats in Milwaukee while ignoring the fact that an investigation by U.S. Attorney Steven Biskupic and former Milwaukee County District Attorney E. Michael McCann found no evidence of [...] Posted by Zach on March 24, 2008, at 7:29 pm
As the Democratic presidential campaign has heated up, Hillary Clinton’s campaign has touted her wealth of foreign policy experience – as both a First Lady and a Senator – as proof she passes the “presidential threshold” while citing Senator Barack Obama’s relative lack of foreign policy experience as yet another reason he’s not fit [...] Posted by Zach on March 21, 2008, at 6:10 am
The fallout from a wholly misleading and some say racist television ad by Michael Gableman continues, as one of the District Attorneys who endorsed Gableman’s campaign has withdrawn that endorsement. Read the letter: I am rescinding my endorsement of Judge Michael Gableman for Wisconsin Supreme Court. I endorsed him because he had been a [...] Posted by Zach on March 20, 2008, at 7:26 pm

Walker puts the blame on judges, saying greater care was needed in [...] |
